This proposal is for a Permanent change to the notified airspace design, and the change level is 2C.
The objective of this airspace change proposal is to truncate Gatwick Airport’s DVR 1M 1V SIDs. There will be no change to lateral tracks or vertical profile of aircraft flying the DVR 1M 1V SIDs as a result of the truncations.
The current conventional RWY26 DVR SIDs from Gatwick have long sections where the flight profile is limited to 6000ft however typically aircraft climb above 6000ft earlier. Truncation of these SIDs would offer the potential for economic and environmental benefits through decreased fuel consumption as aircraft will not be required to fuel for the full procedural SID profile.
